One area that I wanted to expand for Eroticon 2013 was discussions surrounding sexual health and education. I firmly believe that we have a responsibility to write sex right both factually and compassionately to help inform, educate and support young people to grow up with healthy attitudes to their own sexual well-being and that of others, which is why I’m so pleased that Petra Boynton has agreed to take part in Eroticon 2013.
Petra has a particular interest in making sex/relationships evidence freely accessible to the public via social media and is currently researching sex and relationships issues when trying to conceive, during pregnancy and throughout parenthood.
As well as expanding the factual and discursive scope of Eroticon I’m also keen to expand the resources for writers, both creatively and practically, which is where our next speaker can help.
Cressida Downing has over 20 years of experience in publishing and bookselling and has been a freelancer for 13 years for a variety of professional clients and aspiring authors. She is a regular blogger for the Writers’ and Artists’ Yearbook and run workshops with them, with the Writers’ Advice Centre and at writing festivals.
